Cry Out Loud!

-



I never counted the number

In fact they are beyond countable!



The silent tears, rolled down my cheeks

Never allowed me to cry out loud!



They were with me in good and bad times

They shared with me my joys and sorrows

But the silent tears,

Never allowed me to cry out loud!



All through this many years

My anguish and my frustration

My anger and my irritation

They silently bear with me!



Listening to my heartfelt stories

Some short and some lengthy

Unconditionally they accepted me!



They cooled my burning heart

They chilled my fuming thought

All through my life’s experiences …

They hugged me with their warmth!




They never allowed me to


Yell at someone, scream at something

Never shown the world what is my suffering

The silent tears...silently hold me!



They engulfed me in all the stages

Pacified my soul in this chaotic world!

Alas... my silent tears


Never allowed me to cry out loud!

I kept my tears in too, for a lifetime. And then my dog died, and I cried for two years! I can relate to the feelings expressed in this poem. Tears will eventually come out, as they need to do:)

Friends are like memories

Friends are like memories Some good… some bad Some sweet…   some mad True you can choose them But it’s they who decide…. to stay or leave Friendships are like cyclic process You meet …you mingle You treat…you part No one is permanent No one is life long They keep coming and going Some come for a season Some come with a reason Remember…they are like memories In fact …with time, friends become memories You evolve… Your thought evolve… Your memories evolve Bad may become good Good may be become bad…. Seasons do change…reasons may differ Remember… Friends are friends forever Friends remain in memories forever For Poets United Poetry Pantry #293

Mukesh is my favorite singer. And when I am young….specially during teenage days I use to madly listen to his songs. There is a kind of magic in his voice with inexplicable sadness…. That use to take me altogether to a different world. There are n numbers of Mukesh songs….which I know by heart and can sing along! But this one is like the ultimate…..Jaane Kahan Gaye Woh Din! Whenever I listen… there will be definitely tears in my eyes…. by the time the song is complete! The voice, the lyrics and the music….no match at all! And today I don’t know why? after long... long... time I just felt like listening to it! All those …who are sensitive at heart can listen and enjoy! Kyonki…. ”Baadhe saukyamane bhaavana raanevoy! AA yeruke nischalaanandamoy…Brahamaanandamoy”! Learn Telugu if you want to follow it!
